Hello, I have studied your case and I think that you might be having pain in shoulder and neck due to muscle spasm. in this condition there is no need to rush to doctor. I would suggest you following. 1.Hot water fomentation 2.Volini gel local application 3.take muscle relaxant like myoril or myospaz. I hope these steps will be helpful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup question. thanks
